A new era of student safety is here. PointCentral’s Mobile Safety Button offers 24/7 access to emergency assistance, delivering peace of mind at the tap of a smartphone. Whether on campus, at home, or off-property, residents can instantly connect with trained dispatchers who send help directly to their GPS location.
“Creating safe and secure environments for residents is essential to fostering a thriving rental community. The Mobile Safety Button empowers residents to feel safe with professional emergency response and support.”
— Nate Wysk, General Manager, PointCentral
Safety in the Palm of Your Hand
The Mobile Safety Button offers more than emergency contact, it’s a proactive safety companion. With one tap, residents can reach live operators who coordinate real-time support and guidance based on their exact location.
Features Designed for Student Living
The platform is equipped with smart features that support modern student lifestyles:
- Walk Together: A virtual safety escort for walking alone
- Emergency Contacts: Instantly notifies trusted individuals
- Notes: Add useful context like current surroundings or who you’re with
- Home-Screen Widget: Immediate access to safety tools without unlocking the phone
Together, these features ensure residents are always connected to help when they need it most.
A Boost to Community Confidence
For student housing providers, the Mobile Safety Button reinforces a commitment to resident well-being and satisfaction. As Tailwind Group’s Property Manager Nicky Tyus puts it, “Students and parents alike can rest easier knowing help is just a button press away.”
This launch marks a collaboration between PointCentral, ePropertyCare, and Tailwind Group to deliver a best-in-class safety solution to students at Altitude Baton Rouge, a premier student housing community near LSU and Southern University.
